Community college was free, thanks to being dirt poor, from a dirt poor family. Grants are awesome.
I didn’t graduate, I was expelled/dropped out my junior year. Hence the GED. High School didn’t sit well with me, for various reasons. College, on the other hand, worked out well. I think its the fact that I could pick my own interests, and I grew tired of being a rebel, since I actually had my own choices at stake, and not the will of the state.
Stop dropping acid, and major in philosophy.
This. I had no clue what I wanted to do, so I stuck around switching interests for awhile. I tried many majors before moving on to university, without ever picking up an AA. The credits transferred, and it was dirt cheap. Our CC system is awesome.
Actually, some of the best teachers I’ve ever had were at community colleges, and not university. Both in the sense of qualified, and in the the formative sense.
